Like I, I'm a female comedian. I'm a single mom. Like I am the least desirable woman on the market.

Nobody want a woman who's opinionated, who cannot keep her hormones shut. You know, like I'm not in demand. I should take anything that's gonna take me, you know? I don't have the position to pick and choose hmm plus you're in LA right oh I'm a for in LA it's not easy it's hard everybody's hot there dude yeah they are known for being interactive there yeah it's not okay yeah it's been dating has been hard for me and I don't

know what to do sorry to hear that it's okay it's okay I am just focusing on my work okay I'm distracted this is nice nice. It's hard to hear that. It's okay, it's okay. I am just focusing on my work. I'm distracted, it's nice. Nice, right? It's a pyramid to connect us spiritually. It's beautiful. Yeah, it's nice. Damn.

You use the apps or you use matchmakers? Apps sucks. All the guys I met on the app, first of all, I invite them to my show. I'm like, I am crazy. I want to know it. This is not gonna get better. I don't want to be like, pretend to be a nice girl

and sweet and cute. They're like, why you're like different now? I'm like, this is who I am. And then they pretend to be okay, but eventually they want love about me. I can feel love about me. It's like, you don't even know me. You know, like you don't miss me.

We know each other for like two days. I miss you. I don't know why. It's just like guys don't even know me, you know, like you don't miss me. We know each other for like two days. I miss you. I don't know why. It's just like guys, like in LA especially, people are so vain and like 1% people are like successful, like you. Those people are like fine, cool. But most of the people like they want to be there. They are not there. So they want to feel the rush of excitement, of success.

They want to love them somebody who they think is desirable. And they want that person to love them back. And they want that feeling to be validated by somebody who's desirable. The moment that you love somebody back, they're like, bye. They go to the next target. Damn, they ghost you.

Yeah, because they don't have anything else happening in their life. Wow. All the joy and thrill is from getting validation from I think the opposite sex that is desirable that they can never get. They would go for somebody that would never date them. That's why I don't want to give any sympathy pussy anymore

because why? It's not working. I'm just like, oh, none, I guess, right now. No sex right now? I just met someone a few months ago. We just started dating, but we are taking it really slow.

I don't think it will be working Because if you are funnier than them, they hate you if you're not they make fun of you also being a Female comedian. It's very hard to date. It's like such a competitive thing because being funny is very Alpha. If you go to a room, you make jokes, people laugh, that's the alpha move. So it just makes the man feel like a simp. Yeah. Yeah. So they don't, I don't, I don't think a female comedian can like me. That is so true. If my girl was making everyone laugh, I'd be like, damn, like what's my role here?

Yeah. I love her. She's wonderful. And I found out all of the goats loves me. All shitty little bitches hate me. Like all the great comedians who's like, they love me, they value me, they empower me, and they bring me on their platforms.

But like for all those people who are like not making it or like kind of having a bite, they talk shit about me all day. And because I guess I, because I move so fast. Yeah, you came out of nowhere, right? You hate me, but I bought my own club. I invested, I fucked myself to the top. Like I fucked me. I bought a club for myself. If you don't get it, it's like, Oh, where you come from? I'm like, um, I invest in myself, but I paid

my dues every day. I work harder than anyone I know. Meaning because I don't speak English. You do though. Kind of. What kind of species are you? I'm half Chinese. Holy shit. Half Irish, half Chinese. That's Mexican as hell. Mexican? Really?

So like in high school, they're not yeah, they're not that attractive in high school But they get out. If you are Woody Allen, you would be very attracted to them. Right, yeah. When you high school. Could be. Yeah, I don't know. Dating's a weird thing. I've been in the same relationship for seven years now though. Wow, congrats. Seven years is a long time in Vegas. I know. We're engaged. How long have you been in Vegas? Three and a half. How big is the ring?

Two carats. Nothing too crazy. Nice. How big is yours? This is... I don't have a ring anymore. I sold it after my divorce because I got no money. Damn. But this is real diamond and it's okay. It's not engagement ring.

Nobody is gonna put a ring on this. You don't want to get married again? I do but nobody want to marry me. And it's okay. I understand. What's the minimum carrot size they would need? If you have big dick, you have a smaller ring. If your dick's small, honey, you better like it. What's considered small for you?

Small dick? Four inches. Okay. That's reasonable. I can do better. Some girls have crazy standards. Yeah, too big is not like... No, I don't need too big. Too big is like... It's not okay. What's too big? Like nine? Yeah, nine is too big.

So the sweet spot is like six, seven. Boyfriend dick, they call it. Yeah, that's cute. What is like eight? Eight? Eight is too big. So the sweet spot's like six, seven, boyfriend dick, they call it. Yeah, that's cute. What is like eight? Eight? Eight's pretty big. Damn. So you want that? I mean, I wouldn't cry if it's eight.

I would cry, but tear of joy. Have you ever met an Asian that had an eight? My ex had a seven. Okay. He's Chinese. Wow. It's the biggest Chinese dick, I'm pretty sure. Yes.

And I got it. It's just like, everything's perfect, but he just wasn't right for each other. You're too funny. It was nice. It was nice. I hang my towel on his dick. Okay. You still talk to him?

No. We talk through our lawyer and whenever he picks the children, he goes through my maid. Damn. One of those. It's okay. I didn't get any money from him. I don't care. I just wish, I just want to peace, peace of mind, healthy boundary.

And I just, I really don't complain, but I just also don't want any drama. Yeah. If you are not giving me money, don't scream at me. Right? Like that's the least I can ask for. If I'm not getting money from you, don't scream at me. Fair enough.

Did you meet him in China? Yes, I was hosting this Shanghai Film Festival, and then how we met. Yeah, that's when we met. It was romantic. So before comedy? Before, yeah, before comedy. Wow.

2017. Before I was doing my first open mic. What caused you to jump into comedy? John Singleton. Ooh. He's a director. The boy's in the hood. Yeah, I saw that one. Black. He's black.

Okay. And I auditioned for his TV show, Rebel. It's a police drama about a black girl who's a cop. And her best friend is a Chinese girl who knows kung fu. It happened in Oakland. And they wanted me to have an Oakland accent, and I didn't have it. It's like a black girl, Chinese Girl, Kung Fu, police drama. It's like rush hour on a budget. Uh, I was pretty close. John really liked my performance, but he was not happy with my accent.

But he said you should try stand up. You're gonna be a star. I'm gonna do the other job now. He goes hell no. Leave. So, try my first open mic after that. I sucked. It was bad. It was shitty. Yeah, look at this then.

That's why I feel like being a Chinese lady, having an abusive mom is very useful because you don't sugarcoat shit. It's bad, it's bad. And it's important to know when you're bad. When you know you're bad, you don't get depressed when people tell you, you're ugly. Look, you're ugly.

Or like, hey, you're fat. It's okay. But I just feel like having a Chinese mom help us be like, that sucks. I fucking suck and it's okay. I'll do better. So I went on stage. I don't remember what I said. And I felt like I was getting hit by a car,

like a deer in the headlight. And I remember people were like, ugh, somebody should not be doing comedy. That's disgusting, like learn English first, you know? And I got off stage, I knew it was bad, and I went to the bar, I had vodka shots, you know? I'm like, okay, let's do something about this So I bought my club next month. Wow the next month. Mm-hmm

So first of my three weeks later I bought my club. So I was doing 10 hours a day because I know I suck I Got better obviously, but I don't want to be like, oh, it was great. No, I was not it was disgusting. Mm-hmm want to be like, Oh, it was great. No, I was not. It was disgusting. Like getting over the fear of speaking in public, trying to tell a joke is already a thing. Getting over that is a lot of work going into be funny. At the moment is the next level. Like it's something like people don't understand that they are so fragile. I mean, in American culture, you can't, you can't be tough. You have to give them like, give them soft. And I don't believe in that. I think that's why people are pussies now.

And they take all the fucking drugs and the PC culture. You can't say somebody, hey, you're fat. But you can tell them, hey, you have a drinking problem. Why? It's the same thing. You cannot control your love of a substance. You love food too much and you love alcohol too much. It's the same thing.

There's nothing shameful. Or it's bad when you tell a short guy, you are short king. That's abusive. Because when you are a fat bitch, you can lose weight. When you're short, there's nothing you can do about it. It's like a tight-knit girl, hey, you're fat, you are a dairy queen.

No. Right? That would be wrong. You're fat shaming me. How about short shaming? Fat, you're lazy, you can't control yourself, you are weak. But short, he is born that way. You know, I just feel like people are just like, just nothing wrong being fat. Like in China, in the Tang dynasty, being fat is the beauty standard. When are fat means you are rich you have food. So being like Being fat and it's just like a sexy and beautiful. So it's really like an I just don't think a fat is ugly It's not it's just like right now. Let's just be honest The most guy like skanky skinny bitches and that's what they do. They like skinny bitches with big tits.

And that's what they do. And it's fine. There's guys like fat girls. It's all fine. But if it's to a point that is health concern, I just don't think it would be like a taboo to say, hey, maybe you should drink less. Maybe you should eat less.

Because it's unhealthy. But that's like, oh, you're fat shaming. I think it's so weak. It's weak, yeah. My Asian mom was super honest with me growing up. Yeah, she would tell your friends they are fat, right? Oh yeah. Like it just, I don't think it's bullying.

It's just that we have tiny eyes, but we can see. And whatever we are seeing is what we're seeing. Like last night, my mom was like, don't have dinner. I'm like, what? She goes, you're getting fat, don't have dinner. You know, you are single. You can't afford to be fat. Cause the likelihood is like,

you're gonna get a man if you lose more weight. Yeah, she would determine my girlfriends for me. She will tell you which one is ugly, right? Yeah. Tell me, like what is the first girlfriend she, we'll bring a girlfriend home. Yeah, I brought her home. She was like, what the fuck?

She didn't like her. She was on drugs and stuff too. So that makes sense. The girlfriend's on drugs? Yeah. Mom can tell. Yeah. She's sharp.

Yeah, she's sharp. So yeah, she would have a say in my friends and my dating life. Well, it turned out she's doing a good job because you are so successful now. Yeah, I'm super selective with my friends and it worked out. But at the time, I hated it. You know, I couldn't bring home certain people. Did your mom do that too? Oh yeah. Yeah. She would just tell my friend that you look like a cheap hooker.

Get out of my house. Damn. She was that honest? Yeah. And one time I forgot my key. I was knocking my door with my friend. We're going to come home and do my homework. I'm gonna slap me on my face. Wow. Why did you lose your key? My friend cried and ran away. Holy crap. My mom was like, I'm like, mom, she's weak. I'm like, that's right. You can't be friends with her. I'm like, I never talk to her anymore.

I'm like, why would you run away? Like if my mom beat me, you're my friend, you should be there with me. Running away like a little pussy. Yeah, you need to stand up. What about your dad? Was he rough? No, he's drunk all the time.

I don't remember. Really? He's always drunk. Your dad was an alcoholic? Oh yeah. Wow. I didn't know that was an Asian thing to do. I've never heard of an Asian being an alcoholic. Me either.

What was it? Sake? No, Baijiu. What is that? Like a white liquor, like a maotai. Okay. Yeah, he's always drunk. He's very handsome though. Okay. Yeah, my father is gorgeous. He's very handsome though. Okay.

Yeah, my father is gorgeous. He's dealing with himself, huh? Yeah, I love, I mean, he is very well read. He read books. He is very knowledgeable, but he's just drunk. Damn. Drunk his whole life. Sounds like my dad.

He's getting better now. My dad used to read a book a day and drink a 30 pack of beer a day. Oh, his beer, beer guy, mine is like a hot liquor. Oh yeah, those are rough. It's that bad. Damn. You drink soju? It's kind of like a soju.

It's a Chinese version of it. I like soju. Soju is good. Sneaks up on you though. I like warm ones. Oh, you like warm? I like the cold soju. Oh, nice.

Yeah, it sneaks up on you though. We should drink some. We should have Korean barbecue with your girlfriend. Yeah, Korean barbecue is fun. Yeah, we have the meat and the soju. Like what kind of species is your girlfriend? She's Bolivian and Paraguayan, Latina. Ooh, I haven't seen a Latino man. Oh yeah, yeah, kids are going to be interesting.

Same with you, if you have more kids. I want more kids. You want more? Yeah, why not? They're like french fries. Yeah, how many do you want, three? No, I want to make sure my vagina is still very tight. Two is maximum, but I would do one. I think one, You can never have enough. How many you want, three? No, I want to make sure my vagina is still very tight. Two is maximum, but I will do one.

I think one, because I already have two. Did you recover your vagina from the first two? Oh my God, it's not back like this. If I knew it, I would leave my husband right away. Oh wow. Because we were not in a good shape, and I'm like, but now my vagina is loose. I have just put it off.

Damn, it didn't recover. My vagina came back. Oh, it did come back. It recovered. It's so tight right now, and that's why I trapped this new. Nice. Yeah, I heard you could get stem cells now too if it stays loose for too long. Mm-hmm. You can tighten it up with stem cells. Oh, it should be tighter. I don't know. Yeah Asians are already tight. I heard so. Yeah, I'm very that's not the department

I worry about. It's me. It's the mouth. It's I talk. Yeah, that's how I lose man. My vagina snatch them catch them. My mouth opens up and they leave. If I just don't talk, if I just learn to not talk, I'll be married. Wow. Yeah. So you gotta study under the monks or something and learn how to meditate maybe.

Yeah, if I don't talk, I'd be having the best man. Wow, you'd be a billionaire probably. Oh yeah, oh for sure. Just like a key and I'll keep my whole mouth shut. Damn. you'd be a billionaire probably. Oh yeah, oh for sure. Just like a key in my mouth, keep my whole mouth shut. Damn. Yeah. Wow, so your mouth has gotten you into some situation. Yeah, my mouth is the reason why men leave.

My pussy is why they stay. Wow. Wow. But would you rather have it that way or the other way around? I think, I think it's hard for me to change because I make a living talking and I really cannot be consistent.

I'm a piece of shit on stage and off stage. It should be consistent. So I'm waiting for a man who can, probably who can't really hear, having hearing problems. To stay with me. You know, somehow some man is gonna, I don't know. I have crazy friends, like very, very aggressive, overbearing woman.

Really? Powerful woman, aggressive, very aggressive, overbearing woman. Really? Powerful woman, aggressive, and they still have nice men. Like Judge Judy. Some guys don't like to be the alpha. Judge Judy's husband and her are very much in love. Really? Wow, yeah, Judge Judy's an alpha. Yeah, she's definitely an alpha,

and Jerry is very much in love with her, and when I talked to them, and she told me how they met, she goes I Spot him at the bar. Mm-hmm. I walked him. I touched his chin.

Are you the pursuer usually? I'll be like rubbing the dick. I'm like, you're mine. I'm, as a Chinese woman, I'm not. Like I'm kind of very, very, very, very weird combination. I'm very aggressive, very ambitious, very hardworking, very independent. I don't spend men's money.

I mean, if you want to buy me shit, I'll just take it. But I'm not, I don't. So gifts are not your love language. It is, but I buy things for men. Okay. Like if you buy to buy me shit, I'll just take it. But I'm not, I don't. So gifts are not your love language. It is. But I buy things for men. Like if you buy it for me, I like it. But if you don't buy it for me, if you are spending time with me, I'm happy. But I'll be buying you shit. And I don't expect you return your favor.

You're a sugar mama. Oh, yeah. Yeah. If you're a good dick, you're going to get showered with zero legs. Wow. Like I don't. Yeah. I just I, I love, I love buying men nice things. And that's why I cannot be loved by them.

You know, like I don't know the difference. And then they waste my time. So I'm very alpha, but same time I'm very traditional and I don't want to pursue men. I try to like stop myself when I'm trying, like, oh my God, he's okay. I'm like, shoot. Is there an age limit for you?

Yeah, 55 is kind of like too much for me. What about the other way? I can't do 25, like I feel like a pervert. I just feel like I'm breastfeeding them. Yeah, 25 is young. I can't do, 28 is still young for me, but I'll. So I'm off the table then how are you 27? You're over 25

Yeah, you'll be fine. All right. What are the tattoos mean on your own? It's the Chinese thing is the Tian Xing Jian Junzi to強不息 This is Kun Junzi hold a zaiwu is that the way of the heaven moves a gentleman a sexist Confucius whatever aging gentle woman should work hard like the way the heaven moves. And the way the earth moves, a gentleman or a gentle woman should always have a great moral to carry on his success, her success as well.

Wow, that's true. Try not be like, it's about hard working and be a great person. If you are hard working, you can achieve success, but if you are a shithole, piece of shit asshole, you cannot maintain your success. You are going to lose in the long run if you are not a good person.

Agreed. Yes, I try to live by... I love that. ...eating. Yeah, Chinese people work damn hard, man. Yeah, we do. Queen of comedy? Yeah, you manifest.

Okay. I mean, it's aggressive, but... You're chasing the crown? Yeah, I mean, I will live forever. One day I will become the queen of comedy because I'm a Chinese woman. When they all die, I'll still be on stage in my nineties, telling dick jokes. But my pussy is so dry, you know, like,

maybe I will be the queen of comedy that day. Asian people don't age, so you can- I can still look hot. You can have a long career and look good. Yeah, I mean, I will, I will. Yeah, we got that on our side. You've got no gray hairs yet. Not yet. You're looking good. Not No yet because I don't give a fuck you can't give a fuck if you do you have gray hair Yeah, I agree. And what's the one on your hand on the right hand? So that's the name of the female

the only woman Emperor of China in Tang Dynasty Wu Zetian she she was the Emperor of Tang dynasty when China was at its best, the most prosperous dynasty. She's a woman, she ruled China for over 50 years. Okay. And she's not a queen, nobody rules out of her.

She's an emperor and she had a calcubines, male calcubines. What's up? As men, calcubines, she has like 20 boys like her. Oh, like assistant or what? Lovers. Oh, damn. Like a male, like you know Coquibine is when a king has 3,000 Coquibines, the woman who serve him,

she has male Coquibines who serve her. Interesting. Yeah, eat her pussy, I mean. What? That's a full-time job? Like, yeah, because the king in China, they have 3,000 wives, right? Holy crap.

She had like 20, at least, men. Even beautiful men, who's great with everything. What a life. I mean, nobody is like her. Nobody before, nobody after. Damn. It's just... I mean, you're next.

I want to... This is the name. I don't want that much dick. I'm very conservative when it comes to, I believe in love, which is disgusting, but I kind of do. So that's the name she gave herself is pronounced as Zhao. I mean, the character is Ru, you know Ru, right? The sun, Yue is the moon, the Kun is the sky. So she even this character for herself is that my power is above the moon and the sun and the sky.

It means ultimate power, ambition. So I want to whenever something awful happens in my life, I feel powerless. I want this character and her spirit to pump into my blood and give me power and energy. This is very hard. I mean, doing this in my second language as a woman of color and an immigrant all by myself, it's just, it's hard. People hate me.

They really do. And I just need to give myself the power and energy to carry on, to just keep doing what I'm doing. That's deep. I love how much- Until I can get on the digital social hour. You're here. And I'm here.

I mean, you were with LeBron last week, so. Yes. I don't think I'm topping that one. Yeah, LeBron and LeShong. LeBron and Sean. I'll take it being mentioned in the same sentence. How many percentage are you black? Like how many percent?

that really helps me to maintain myself, I guess. Like if I am traveling nonstop, no sleep for 24 hours, I have to do a show to a thousand people. I'll be like, okay, we need to reserve energy to come out and just like to do it so amazingly. After that we can pass out. I can do it. I can go there and be like, I just woke up

from a long night's sleep. And then after I'm done, I'm done. Checked out. Checked out. So whenever I need to do something, I behave. I perform. Whenever there's something like, I got so excited for some big stuff. I'm like, let's sleep.

We had to sleep. So I'm like, listen, we had to sleep for three hours and that's all we got. We're gonna sleep. I'm gonna sleep. I don't like lose my sleep. I don't really need any drugs to like calm down. I mean, I'm kind of too crazy to calm down, too intense.

Cause I don't think I can ever do cocaine because I'm already like on coke. Yeah. I can't picture that actually. Like me as a person, I'm like, Yeah. You're already really energized. Is that coffee? Yeah. Okay. So yeah, you're already, you know, really energized.

on some mushrooms, little microdose. I haven't, I should try. Yeah, it might work. I haven't, I haven't, cause I just had some at her house and I threw up. So I never tried again. How much did you eat? I don't know.

Damn. Not much. What a friend right there. I don't remember. She showed me and I snatched it. I just ate it. She goes, stop it. It's just like, you can't do the whole thing.

I'm like, I don't feel anything. When I started crying and throwing up. Guys, you don't like uppers, you don't like psychedelics. What about downers? What's downers? Xanax, anti pain, anti inflammation. You mean Vicodin? Yeah, I think so.

I just got back from work and the doctor gave me one bottle and I had like a half. I'm like, I like to feel the pain. Pain make me feel excited. Wow. Like if you don't choke me, I can't come. You're kinky in bed.

Oh yeah. Okay. I mean, I'm crazy. You got a whip? No, not that far yet, but probably I have to go there one day, but I like rough sex. Damn.

And romantic sex. If I like a guy, I like everything. If I don't like them, I'm like, come on the wall. Leave, you know. I'm very romantic. Same. Yeah, I just like very romantic. I believe in romance,

and that's why it's very hard for me to survive in LA because like if you are have like open relationship. Yeah. They like, they had like one night stand or friends with benefits. I can't do that. I'm like, how can I? Yeah, there's very little love in LA.

Yeah, friends with benefits. You've never done it? No, I can't do it. Never done it. I just, I don't, it doesn't make me happy. I don't, I don't get turned happy. I don't get turned on. I can't even do a threesome. Wow.

Because somebody's gonna die. Like I would be like agree to a threesome and then like my boyfriend would start fucking that girl. I'll be like, you are a fucking slut. I'm gonna like beat them up or something. Yeah. I just, I'm so insecure. I can't do it.

I'm so like romantic. I mean, writing him I'm so insecure. I can't do it. I'm so like a romantic I mean writing him loves poetry Wow, I don't I can't I just can't do it. I know And it's LA everybody's like into three. Yeah, I'm surprised you live there. I don't know why I live in Arcadia Hmm. Yeah, your energy doesn't give me LA vibes What does it give Manhattan? I think so right East Coast very New York. Yeah, I mean, I'm back. Oh, I stay it give? Manhattan. I think so right? East Coast. I'm very New York. Yeah, I mean I'm back coast to I stay in New York every month. You like the guys over there better? No, they don't like me though. I do like them, but they don't like me. Yeah, I don't I have this comedian guy Who's flirting with me for like two years? I never fucked him because I'm like he has to earn my pussy and then when he told me I love you Next day I found out he's married.

Whoa. I'm like, you gotta be fucking kidding me. Damn. But I mean, I'm not invested because we never had sex. I just, yeah, I mean, they suck too. Wow. Yeah, I wouldn't- I feel like even men who's attractive and successful,

they would always choose to be with a nice, beautiful woman who don't talk shit. Yeah, so here's the thing, a woman's a representation of the man. Yeah, like I would, if a man don't really love me, they would think I'm embarrassing. That's what I mean, yeah, if you say the wrong joke, it doesn't hit with the person.

Yeah, I was invited to perform for Robert F. Kennedy for his fundraiser early in Beverly Hills. They were like, it could just be you. We love the way you are. So they want to see my jokes. I sent over, they're like, no, you can't. You can come and eat, but not going on stage. I'm like, ah.

So like sometimes I regret for me to not tone it down a little bit. Sometimes I'm like, you know what? I'm a piece of shit. I have like, so like sometimes I regret for me to not tone it down a little bit. Sometimes I can do what I'm a piece of shit. I have to be consistent. Yeah. Yeah. You'll find that balance. Yeah. Yeah. One more kid. So how are you? Do you want the kids? Yeah. How many? Three. Cute. Yeah. Three kids. Do you have a younger brother and sister? Only child. Oh, you want to carry the policy on to America? Nah, because I was lonely as fuck growing up. It was kind of traumatizing.

I have two kids, they play together. Exactly. Yeah, I want at least two. So they could be together. Because only child, I could go really bad. Like I could have been a different person, drug addict or whatever. Yeah. So lonely.

You know how it was. You were the only child too, right? No, I had a younger brother and sister to abuse. Oh, wow. So you were mean to them? No, they were stupid, it's not really my fault My sister is like a little slow, so I beat her when she's not good at math My brother... You know, he has a penis He's a boy, so they like him

You couldn't beat him up? Don't think he's smart I can beat him But I don't beat boys Yeah, Asians don't measure, it's all about intelligence with Asians Yeah, he's smart. I can beat him, but I don't beat boys. Yeah, Asians don't measure. It's all about intelligence with Asians. Yeah, he's not really smart. It's okay.

You like China or US better? It's different. You know, like the friendship in China is very different. When you have a real friend, it's like ride or die. It's like a family. Like you can talk about money. But in America, talk about money is like the taboo. Taboo, yeah. And I don't like it because I feel like money

is a factor to determine. Friendships and relationships. Friendships, relationships, love, family. Like I support my whole family. My grandparents, my grandma, maybe my grandma, grandpa, my father, my mom, my children, even my dog, you know. I mean, I have to feed him,

because you can't starve them because they're fattening in L.A. They're like so important, you know. I just, I feel like money is important. When you don't talk about money, it just, it sounds weird to me. I don't, I don't understand. And like you can't borrow money from your friends. You can't lend money to your friends.

It's weird. And there's sharing the bills in dating, that disgusts me. My pussy dries so fast. Like I'll pay for dinner. I'm happy to pay for dinner. I can't share the bill. Like I cannot do it.

I'm not being cheap. What if it's the first date? The man should pay. Okay. Or like the harder one should pay. You should not pay. If I am taking Tim Sajamali out, right? I'll be like, I'm giving you dinner.

You are giving me herpes. You know, like it's not gonna be like. Yeah, that makes sense. The harder one don't pay. That's what I'm giving you dinner, you are giving me herpes. You know, like it's not gonna be like. Yeah, that makes sense. The harder one don't pay, that's what I'm saying. Like the harder one should not pay. Yeah, I heard girls don't like when you split the bill. The first date? No, that's like hell no. Yeah, it's only like.

Like my third date I paid, and I want to, I want to trade him. I took him out to a nice restaurant and I paid for it. I don't want him to pay, so I called ahead to pay it. To put my credit card down before he can have a chance. I'm not cheap. As a Chinese woman I don't want people to be like, we're gonna fuck later but now we're gonna share the bill. That's disgusting. That is gross. My pussy is so dry just thinking about it. I'm just so pissed off. I don't think you would ever share a bill with the first date. I don't think I ever have no No, you wouldn't do that. The Chinese here to the Tokyo. Yeah, the Chinese ancestors are gonna fucking kill you

They would come for me. They will make your dick soft You'd be like you can share the bill with the girls, but you won't fucking you'll be fucking tonight. Yeah, they'll be my shame to us Damn, you're not on Raya They they let me show you. They banned you. Let me show you Raya. You spoke up, you didn't you? They put me on a waiting list since many, many years ago. What? They don't want comedians.

Really? Yeah, you have to refer me. Yeah, I'll get you on there. Can you talk to them? Uh, yeah. I know someone there. Can you believe it? Well, if it's been years, that means they are intentionally not letting you on. Yeah, if it's been, wow, seven referrals. Yeah.

Can you talk to them? I'll try. Texting you. I mean, I really don't need to be on it, but like, why not? Yeah, that one I heard is decent. Yeah, are you? No.

You are dating. Yeah, I'm in a relationship. Yeah, I don't, I don't, I'm not gonna go there and date, but I'm gonna go there and peek and just like write about it. Yeah, I would use it to network, yeah, why not? Yeah, joke about it. You could get some good jokes off there probably, some good stories. Yeah, my jokes are buddy. Yeah, what audience do you have? Is it Asians mainly? Not really, it's very very diverse. Um, I would say 20% Asian community. Oh, that's it? Audience, yeah. But Asians love me, obviously.

We sell fast in San Francisco, Seattle, but we can sell out in places like Texas, anywhere. Raleigh, North Carolina. My audience are Asian, black, white, Latino, gay and lesbian LGBTQ community. Damn. Yeah, they love me. I don't know why, because I talk shit about everybody, but they do love me.

They like a diva, I think they just do. So my audience are just the United States of America, and we're just pretty lucky because I can play anywhere. I don't have to be like I'm the Asian comedian Right Asians don't claim me Absolutely, they love me. I love the Asians love me. They do you got a special out yet I have the 30 minutes on peacock. We are doing my one hour right now with a few network I'm just debating which one should go this so it's gonna be major. That's a big move. It's big

I I was when I was a few years in It's big. I was, when I was a few years in, I was like, I want to be famous, I want to be famous, and I'm like, I'm good, I want the best, I want to get the best to my people, not in a hurry, but it's gonna come out soon. So we are negotiating contracts. Negotiating contracts right now with my lawyer. Stay tuned, guys, stay tuned. That's a big deal, not a lot of comedians get to that level,

so you're already doing better than 99%. I try, I try, you know, when you don't speak English, you really have an advantage. Plus when you buy a club, I mean, I've never heard of someone taking that route. That's how much I love it. I love comedy so much, I bought myself a club. Right, cause I know people that work in clubs for 10 years

and then get famous, but never buying it. Yeah, we work, we have to look at people and wait for them to give you a chance. You will own it, you can go on stage and bomb. Daily, nobody can say anything. So you were just losing money, but you were getting better. Oh, yeah. Yeah. For sure. I love it.

Yeah. I mean, I knew how bad I am, and I need to be on stage every day for 10 hours per day until I stop bombing. Damn. I need to see videos. Nobody's gonna bomb me in public, because when I came out, I'm like... Ha! Yeah, I did it in private. I love it. And now you're sold out. You got a tour right now, right? Yeah, it's selling out just like my husband's.

Wow. You only had one husband, I thought. Oh, honey. Two? Damn. My first one is my college sweetheart. He's the one that's got away. He's Russian.

Russian? From Kentucky. He's a communist. He's a connection. Well, China's communist, too. You'll not see him coming one day. He's going to invade my pussy. I'm like, OK. Was that at one of of your shows? No he never came to my show. He we broke up

before I started comedy but he's a sweetheart he's a nice one. I wish him the best. Shout out to him. He's not taking me back obviously. But he's engaged. The's engaged. The one that got away. But third time's the charm they say. I know. I think you got this next time. I think you got this next time.

My Latino can work. It's my first Latino man. Yeah, Latino Asian could be a cool mix. I hope so. I hope he's not gonna find out. I mean, he's eventually gonna find out what about me that's irritating, but either he's gonna like it or not.

You know, it depends. I'm too old to change. So I'm waiting for the right guy or no one. I feel that. You've been watching the Olympics? Oh yeah. China's doing pretty good. They are. China and US.

Yeah, they do well. China and US, I mean, it's a big country. We have to choose the best to represent us. Surprising, because Chinese people aren't athletic, but they're doing... The ones who are in the team, they have a lot of resource to train every day. Work ethic. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's a work ethic. But most people are not really into sports. But if they are in the team, they have to bring honor and glory back to the motherland. Right. They put them in a sweatshop. Yeah. Yeah. Work 18 hours a day. They have to work hard. That's what I noticed about me because I wasn't athletic, but I could work hard. Yeah, it's your friend's mom. It's your ancestors.

For sure. It's just that you're, it's in your blood. If your girl wants you to go all night, you do it. If my girl wanted it? Yeah. You do it. If you just have to do it, you do it. Yeah, I've done it, yeah.

How long, how many times an Irish? Most I've done in a day, it's six. That's pretty good. Not bad, right? Not bad. It's been a while, but. Do you think it's from the Chinese or from the Irish? Chinese, I'd say. Irish is more drunk. You know?

What's your go-to drink? My go-to drink, when I used to drink, was tequila sunrise. That was pretty basic. Tequila is good for you. Yeah, tequila and orange juice. Tequila doesn't give you hangover. Yeah, I would never get them. Tequila is good.

My friend, Suji has amazing tequila at her place. I'm gonna go back and taste a few of the different tequilas. Yeah, it's hard to beat tequila. I've only gotten a hangover twice in my life. That's good. It's the Irish and Chinese in you. Yeah, I could drink nonstop and be fine. You don't drink anymore?

Nah. How long you been not drinking? Five years. Five years? Yeah. Nice. That's great. I went through a whole phase in college, but yeah, I'm out of it.

Yeah, I used to drink and I'm, I wouldn't say sober, but I just don't really drink anymore. Yeah, I'm at that spot. Like I'm going on a cruise next week. I'll have a drink, but I'm not gonna get drunk. It was just like, it's so, I was Monday, I went to this hot yoga, it was so intense. I felt so high and I got so high after stage.

I was like, I'm feeling great. You know, I don't want to like, don't know what I'm doing. Don't feel it. I want to feel it a hundred percent. Yeah, hot yoga. I like hot yoga. And sober sex is the best. It is. Drunk sex is, doesn't feel it. I want to feel it 100%. Yeah. Hot yoga. I like hot yoga. And sober sex is the best. It is.

Drunk sex is, doesn't feel as good. Yeah. It's just like, you don't remember as much. It feels good and you don't remember it. Sometimes you don't remember it at all. Yeah. It's not good. Yeah. Yoga is a good spot to meet girls. Oh yeah.

I tell all my single guy friends, go to hot yoga at lifetime. You're the only guy there, 20 girls. Yeah. And they all care about their body. Yeah, they're all pretty physically attractive. So if you're watching this guys go to hot yoga. Hot yoga is where you go. I strained my neck last time. You make me look so old because you're so young.

You're young. I look old next to you. Really? Asians are hard to tell, you know. I've gotten 20, I've gotten 40. No, you look 20. Yeah. Oh shit Okay, I mean I look good for What I don't know how old you are. I look good for comedian. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah a lot of comedians

I mean, it's not it's not hard. It's harder competition. Yeah, they're getting older now all the good ones Yeah, there's not really there's some up-and-comers Matt Reif and now all the good ones yeah there's not really there's some up-and-comers Matt Reif and Schultz is young I guess yeah Matt Reif is pretty beautiful yeah he's gotten a lot of girls yeah he's a pussy whisper yeah have you collaborated with him yeah he we work a lot at the Laugh Factory and I booked him on the first show for I'm at club. Oh, you booked him? For OnlyFans comedy show. Oh, nice.

Yeah, I produced it at my comedy club. My ref and I were the first comedy show for them. I produced. Wow. I know him. So you knew him before he blew up or? Yeah, I know him before he blew up. Oh yeah.

Right before. I mean, a few years before, but when we did that show, it was probably three or four months before Okay He just remember he was in the green room like literally fucking upset because he had like a hundred ninety thousand followers on Instagram And his Instagram is banned What? Yeah, it's just like something you post you know people hate so it's banned and he's like really upset and then three months later

Did you see him blowing up like that? Can I see it from far away? And then three months later. Did you see him blowing up like that? Can I see it from far away? Yeah. I can see it because he's a comedy nerd. He started when he was like 17. So he's only like 20s, but he's been doing it for over 10 years.

And he truly just loved it. And he's a pretty boy, but he just truly loved comedy. And people hate him. But, uh, it's just, uh, not fair because I can't imagine me doing comedy. I'm 17. I wasn't even know what I'm going to do. So he just, he's quoting Colin, Colin, George, Colin, when he's 17, his Instagram. Like he, he, that's what he wanted his whole life.

And he worked for it. And over 10 years, for somebody who's talented and really handsome, it can happen. And it happens. And TikTok picked up. Haters just need to chill the fuck out. Yeah, he used to get a lot. Speaking of TikTok, you got banned off TikTok, right?

What'd you do? I just bitched about it. What do you mean? My lawyer wrote a letter, and then they kind of, Jewish lawyers are the best, hashtag Jewish lawyers. So now everything's better, because I felt whenever I got defeated as an Asian in me,

wanted to be like, oh, what should we do? And let's just be true and don't cause problems. But like, is that crazy boss bitch, Amy, be like, no, no, I, I, no, I'm not, no, I'm not okay. I'm not okay. I'm gonna, I'm gonna be talking. I'm gonna fix this. I just feel like not subtle is one of the advice

I can give young artists or entrepreneurs because I'm also an entrepreneur. I just don't subtle. Just there's always a way. When there's a will, there's a way. You can figure it out. If I can do this without speaking English, you can do it. Way better than I can do it. Yeah, props to you.

Yeah, way better. I just feel like nothing I do is special. But in special, I just don't give up. Yeah, my mom, same thing, came here from China, didn't speak English, 20 bucks in her pocket. Used to scrub the floors, kitchens. 20 grand in her bank. Now she's a millionaire. Yeah.

Yeah, 20 dollars in her pocket, scrubbed the kitchen floors, did the dishes, didn't speak English. Yeah, I worked in the pocket, scrubbed the kitchen floors, did the dishes, didn't speak English.

Your waiter clean bathroom, cashier do everything because they bully you because you don't have a green card. You don't know better, right? You don't have a green card.
